You captured, with all its horror and pathos, that scene from "Consequences". Your F/X in all its forms is of the awesome.

You speak what I always imagine is exactly the language of Xander's inner voice.

I really enjoy stream of consciousness, with a dash of presence-of-mind that I figure just about anyone would have when someone's trying to choke them to death.

I wish I had written all the dream sequences in Sparrow in present tense, as I did the last couple. It works out on a completely different level.

Now you made me cry. Evil you.

You write fantastic inner monologues.

I love stream of consciousness. It flows, because I don't have to really think about what I'm writing, other than is this grammatically sound?

Oftentimes, it doesn't matter if it's not. Kind of like the action scenes in Sparrow, wherein the craziness is more important than the structure.

Loved it. Stream of consciousness is hard to pull off well, and you managed admirably.

Thanks. :)

I read this initially on le iPhone while in a rare internet-having zone somewhere in Bum****, Cambodia. It's even more awesome on a (slightly) bigger screen and without all the 'your five minutes is up' messages interrupting.

Bloody brilliant as always.
